kisi gali men kiraye pe ghar liya usne phir us gali men gharo ke kiraye badhne lage

hazaaron saal nargis apni be-noori pe roti hai badi mushkil se hota hai chaman men deeda-war paida

kyuuñ darein zindagi men kya hogaa kuchh na hogaa to tajurba hogaa

agar tum ho to ghabraane ki koi baat thodii hai zara si boonda-baan dii hai bahut barsaat thodii hai ye raah-e-ishq hai is men qadam aise hi uthte hain mohabbat sochne waalon ke bas ki baat thodii hai

zaraa thehro ki shab feeki bahut hai tumhein ghar jaane kii jal dii bahut hai zaraa nazdeek aakar baith jaao tumhaare shahar men sar dii bahut hai

ab ke ham tark-e-rusoomaat karke dekhte hain beech waalon ke bina baat karke dekhte hain isse pahle ki koi faisla talwaar kare aakhiri baar mulaqaat karke dekhte hain

ghar ki taqseem men anganaai ganwa baithe hain phool gulshan se shanaasaai ganwa baithe hain baat aankhoñ se samajh lene ka daava mat kar ham isee shauq men beenaai ganwa baithe hain

ab to lagta hai ki aa jaayegi baari meri kisne de dii teri aankhoñ ko supaari meri

karti hai to karne de hawaon ko sharaarat mausam ka takaaza hai ki baalon ko khula chhod

dard-e-mohabbat dard-e-judai dono ko ik saath mila tu bhi tanhaa main bhi tanhaa aa is baat pe haath mila
